KUALA LUMPUR, June 20 — Malaysia has climbed five spots to 27th place in the world’s most competitive economies, according to the International Institute for Management Development World Competitiveness Ranking 2023 report revealed today.According to the report, Malaysia’s improvement in the rankings were mainly backed by its economic recovery, investment growth, and bright spots in exchange rate stability, and the employment market, reported Xinhua.
While Malaysia’s strength areas are prices, basic infrastructure and tax policies, the IMD pointed out that the country did not perform well in the following sub-factor rankings: business legislation, education and societal framework.
